May is the month when nurses of all types are recognized and celebrated. The Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) students at the Orleans and Niagara Career and Technical Education Centers have been working hard to complete their 1,730 hour course that will allow then to take the NCLEX exam for their license. The Orleans/Niagara BOCES students spend 510 hours at local hospitals to get their clinical hours and assist the nurses in many of their duties taking care of those who are recovering or require treatment. They deserve big congratulations for all the hard work and dedication to starting this rewarding career.
